Eight of the best teams left in college baseball will vie for the national championship in Omaha, Nebraska after a grueling tournament that started with 64 teams.

One of those teams that made it out and will have a shot at the title in Omaha is the Virginia Cavaliers, and here’s a look at how they were able to get to this point, from the regular season all the way through the Super Regional.

"Virginia was preseason No. 1 for the first time in program history and lived up to its billing, spending a total of eight weeks atop the rankings over the course of the season. The Cavs lost just one series all season—their regular-season finale at Wake Forest—but have gotten their bats going in the postseason to reach Omaha for the third time since 2009."

The Cavaliers will start their College World Series journey by taking on the Ole Miss Rebels this weekend. How much of a chance do you give the Longhorns to walk away with the title from Omaha? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
